I was sold to a dangerous place in order to repay my parents’ debt, and I ended up being bought by a vampire young lady. I became the feed for the beautiful maid.

 Let’s Welcome the Noble Young Ladies from Another World with a Tea Party!

──Inviting a noble young lady from another world for a tea party on Earth.

The term “tea party” was something I had heard before. It was supposed to be like a girls’ gathering in another world, where they chat while eating sweets.

But the reason I felt nothing but trouble was probably because I was about to delve into the unknown territory of noble social interactions.

The purpose of Lady Silvinia return was to make arrangements for this event.

If that’s all, why is she complaining about it?

“Eeh~? It’s so troublesome…”

The answer came from the young lady who was making a displeased expression.

Her tone conveyed nothing but aversion, so I wondered if she had a bad impression of tea parties.

“Miss, do you really dislike tea parties?”

“Of course. While the word ‘tea party’ might sound fun, in reality, it’s like being subjected to someone’s self-centered monologues endlessly flowing on social media. And they’re usually about people you don’t even care about.”

“Your analogy is quite vivid.”

Sure, I understand that she wouldn’t be interested in seeing photos of someone’s dinner or selfies with their outfits when she doesn’t know the person.

“And besides, why can’t they just say things straightforwardly? They talk around the point and make you interpret their words, and even after all that, the conversation is still dull. It ruins the tea sweets!”

“It’s quite an unrefined reason for someone from a ducal family…”

I always thought she wasn’t much like a noble, but being so frank, she worried me in a different way.

But I guess she could pull off playing the part of a refined lady, so it’s unnecessary to be concerned.

Even so, I can see why she would find it tedious to be forced to participate in conversations she has no interest in.

“And on top of that, they want to be liked by me because I’m a duke’s daughter. They’re trying to bask in the glory of the Scarlet family. I can see through their intentions, and that makes it even worse!”

“Lady…”

The young lady sighed, her expression filled with genuine annoyance. It must be quite troublesome for her, living in the noble society despite not being interested in it.

If I try to imagine it a little, I can see why.

Having people approach you with obvious intentions you’d rather not have anything to do with would be bothersome and something you’d want to avoid.

 And as a young lady from a prominent Duke’s family, she must be conscious of her behavior and find it difficult to decline such interactions.

Thinking back, after she bought me as a servant, she declined being addressed with honorifics during private times. 

Maybe she just wanted to let loose occasionally.

“I understand Elina-chan’s feelings, but this time, we can’t afford to say no…”

“Why is that?”

“The proposer is none other than King Verzeld himself.”

“Eh!?”

I unintentionally raised my voice upon hearing the name of the proposer.

The fact that it caused a significant shock was evident from the reaction of everyone present, but nobody pointed out my rudeness.

It was impossible.

The shock was understandable considering King Verzeld is the ruler of the other world. 

He’s the king who supposedly defeated the Demon Lord that once ruled the other world 30 years ago after being transported from Earth. 

He has a resume that would put many isekai light novels to shame, and now he’s regarded as a living legend that no one is unfamiliar with.

I never imagined that Lady Silvinia and King Verzeld would know each other. But then again, she’s a duchess’s wife, so you’d think she would be somehow connected to him, yeah…

“Well, there’s no way we could refuse, of course…”

The young lady wasn’t bothered by my surprise and showed a hint of exasperation.

I wanted to nod in agreement with her words countless times.

While I was surprised, it’s only natural that she couldn’t refuse, especially since it was King Verzeld’s proposal. 

If it’s a proposal from the busy king, involving the exchange between Earth and the other world, then entrusting the Scarlet Ducal Family with the foundation of that relationship is practically the same as being responsible for it.

Refusing wouldn’t be just a minor disagreement; it could be something serious enough to result in losing your head.

The responsibility is too heavy… I must avoid failure at all costs!

Amid the tense atmosphere, Lady Silvinia clapped her hands to gather everyone’s attention.

“Which is why we need to prepare everything by ten days from now. There’s a list provided by King Verzeld, and he will be the one selecting which young ladies to invite. Please take a look and acquaint yourselves with their recent status.”

“It’s troublesome, but we need to be familiar with the current situations of the guests. Do you have any documentation on their business dealings?”

“Of course. Although I will also be there on the day, Elina-chan will be in charge of entertaining the young ladies.”

“Then I should focus on selecting and preparing the snacks and beverages?”

“Yes, and there’s no need to worry about that as long as you’re in charge, Jajimu.”

“Then, Lily and Saku-chan will be in charge of cleaning and decorating the venue, as well as other preparations?” Lilith responded.

“We’ll handle the arrangements and necessary items.” Jajimu-san assured the lady.

“It’s reassuring to have someone so attentive.”

The conversation progressed rapidly. Jajimu-san and Lilith are quite experienced as members of the ducal family’s staff.

What about me?

I do have experience in customer service at a restaurant, but it would be incredibly rude to act that way with upper-class individuals. I know that much.

So, based on my experience, there’s only one action to take when you’re uncertain… when in doubt, ask the person in charge.

In other words, I should ask Lady Silvinia herself.

“Um, Lady Silvinia. What should I do?”

 “I’d like to explain, but before that… Sakura-chan, could you come here for a moment?”

“What’s the matter?”

Rather than discussing the matter at hand, for some reason, Silvinia-sama calls Hizuki-san.

It’s interesting that she was in the middle of talking with Lilith, but she responds gracefully and approaches us.

 After we all gather, Silvinia-sama with a smile of approval  looks at each of us in turn and  says, 

“Sakura-chan, please teach Isaya-chan the necessary manners before the tea party.”

“Eh?” Both Hizuki-san and I exclaim in unison.

Both Hizuki-san and I were stunned by the instructions given to us as if they were already decided.

Surprisingly, Lady Silvinia decided on this instruction without any prior consultation.

I turned my face towards Hizuki-san, and for a brief moment, our eyes met her crimson ones, but she quickly averted her gaze.

Avoiding me… well, that’s to be expected.

There’s no issue with me being taught about manners. The problem lies in the fact that Hizuki is the one teaching me, with things between us still awkward.

Lady Silvinia!

I don’t know if you’re aware of our current situation, but why on earth did you ask Hizuki of all people to do this?!

“Of course, you and Lilith-chan will handle preparations concurrently. Now, I’ll go review the list with Elina-chan.”

“Understood…”

“Roger…”

I wanted to say so much, but there was no way a slave and a servant could defy the mistress’s orders, so I remained silent and complied.

Handling the already challenging tea party while being paired with Hizuki-san is making me even more anxious.

I feel like burying my head in my hands.

What will happen at the tea party…?
